Surgery Tomorrow Morning Nerves

Well, I've talked of nothing else for the last two months and hours from surgery my anxiety has finally taken hold. I have had terrible indigestion and headache all day and I can only attribute it to nerves. I think I need we'll wishes and maybe a little prayer. For the first time my husband said to me that he thought I was brave. I really appreciated that because no one wants to have to do this to their body. I'm just trying to save my life and be their for my family. Wish me luck!

Hello Paloma.

I am anxious but so excited. Now, this is my first post, and I am glad to start it w/ you..."Dear Father in Heaven, You made us and You and only YOU know all about us, and our desires, needs and hopes. Right now, I ask you, on behalf of Paloma and Myself, to please be w/ her tomorrow as she takes on this new journey in LIFE. We know that through you all things are possible, and we also know that you provide people in our paths to help us when we ourselves can not do it alone and we thank you for them. I pray that you give her surgeons and all who will be involved in her procedure all that is needed for it to successful in every way, both during and afterwards. Dear God, we love you so much and we thank you for second chances. Please be w/ her and give her the peace of mind to go in knowing that You will be there leading the team! Thank your for hearing our prayers and it is IN Your name that I pray, Amen." I do pray that this will comfort you and your family, please let us know how you are doing afterwards....C the New You soon. Bye4now, DeezJeanz :)

I just want you to know that I was profoundly touched by your prayer. I am not a big cryer, but I let loose and felt so much better. I really felt the power of those words and thank you for helping me to get through. I am post op and feeling fine now. Thanks again and God bless you.
